Car park
In this Core Maths resource students are asked to apply their knowledge of upper and lower bounds when designing a car park for a department store.
The teacher's notes suggest possible extensions, such as comparing with a real car park or finding possible profit if their design was used as a pay and display car park. The short Powerpoint explains the task and what is expected from the students.
The materials also includes aspects of scale drawing. It is suitable for paired or group work, and requires students to make decisions and explain their assumptions and methods use when creating their design.
